JAMEL SHABAZZ – EYES ON THE STREET

Posted on 2022-07-11

Starting at the young age of fifteen, Brooklyn born photographer Jamel Shabazz identified early on the core subject of his lifelong investigation: the men and women, young and old, who invest the streets of New York with a high degree of theater and style, mixing traditions and cultures. Despite following a celebrated tradition of street photography that includes Gordon Parks, Garry Winogrand, and Lee Friedlander, it is to his credit that Shabazz has been one of the first photographers to realize the joyous, infectious potential of youth culture in neighborhoods such as Red Hook, Brownsville, Flatbush, Fort Greene, Harlem, Manhattan’s Lower East Side and the Grand Concourse section of the Bronx. A formidable archive of New York’s communities in the outer boroughs, this exhibition pays homage to Shabazz’s illustrious career of over forty years documenting the vibrant interaction of New Yorkers with their neighborhoods.

Opposite – Fly Girls. Brooklyn, NYC. 1982

Exhibition runs through to September 4th, 2022

DGOHN – UNDESIGNATED REMIXES

Posted on 2022-07-11

UK drum and bass producer dgoHn’s 2020 debut LP Undesignated Proximate was a certified smash, with tracks that perfectly filled the gap between cerebral sound design trickery and break-induced mania. Love Love Records was wise then to have gathered up remixes of each Undesignated track from their extended family for this loving companion package. With redos that range from blissed out dub to furious hardcore, Undesignated Remixes works like a defacto survey of everything cool in contemporary underground dance. While big names like Coco Bryce, Forest Drive West, and Skee Mask deliver with ease, it’s Scrase’s warehouse-ready take on ‘Conty’ that really hits the mark.

INKIPAK – TEMPORAL FLUX

Posted on 2022-07-11

Distant Worlds continues its sonic missionary into 2022, going to places Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos can barely dream about. Captaining the ship for this voyage is the inimitable Inkipak, a true renaissance man for the ages. Steeped in the 90s aesthetic, his palette of sound branches together everything that made the golden era so special. Across 4 tracks of interstellar wonder and emotion, elements of acid intermingle with deep bass, killer breaks, beats and ghosts of IDM wizardry.
